The foundation of UND athletics is the unwavering passion
of Fighting Sioux fans, the nation’s best.

and its athletics than UND.”

nate baukol
Director of Strength and Conditioning
Fighting Sioux
2011 north dakota Softball
Strength and conditioning
mission
It is our mission to physically and mentally
prepare the student-athlete for the rigors
of collegiate athletics, by implementing
professionally designed, scientifically
sound training programs, designed
specifically to reduce the incidence of
injury and help each team and studentathlete
reach their full athletic potential.
PHilosoPHy
We believe that strength and conditioning
is crucial to the complete development
of the student-athlete. The philosophy of
our strength and conditioning program
is based on the belief that what occurs in
the weight room and field transfers to the
playing surface. We train sport specifically with the goal of enhancing
athleticism. We also believe in the importance of work ethic, attitude,
accountability and mental toughness and that these qualities can
be developed and enhanced through our strength and conditioning
program.
At the University of North Dakota, one program, functioning behind
the scenes, but which should not be taken lightly, is the strength and
conditioning program. The strength and conditioning program at UND
is among the finest in Division I and vital to the success of all UND athletic
teams. The strength and conditioning staff commits themselves to the
development of size, strength, power, speed, agility, conditioning, and
body composition of each student-athlete. The goal of the strength staff
is to develop the athlete and team to reach their maximum potential
throughout their career while staying injury free.
Nate Baukol, director of strength and conditioning, oversees the
program and facilities. Baukol has three full-time assistant coaches and
one graduate assistant coach to assist him.
Together they direct and monitor the training of over 500 studentathletes
in 20 sports at UND. UND also boasts some of the finest
strength training facilities around. The facilities include the Ralph
Engelstad Arena weight room, the Memorial Stadium weight room, and
the Hyslop Sports Center weight room.
Training has become a year-round activity, with a student athlete
spending as much time on physical development as any other part
of their sport throughout the year. Student-athletes follow either offseason
or in-season programs, which are individualized specific to the
athlete and sport. Off-season programs are five days a week, summer
months included.
Each athlete receives a comprehensive summer training manual to
follow, given that a member of the strength staff won’t be supervising
them. In-season programs are typically 45-minute sessions, two to three
days per week, supervised by the strength and conditioning staff.
The Fighting Sioux volleyball program trains at the Betty Engelstad
Sioux Center’s Brown and Bender Performance Center, which was
graciously donated by Mark Brown and David Bender during the 2005-
06 season.

dr. Greg Greek
Team Physician
One of the unfortunate aspects of athletics
is that injuries do occur. However, every
student-athlete from UND athletic teams
are under excellent care thanks to the
UND Divison of Sports Medicine and its
umbrella of staff, facilities and training.
With a staff of nine faculty athletic trainers,
two graduate assistant athletic trainers
and 30 athletic training students headed
by director of sports medicine Steve
Westereng, UND student-athletes are in
good hands, returning them quickly and
safely to participation.
The UND Division of Sports Medicine was
formed in 1990. Additionally, the bachelor
of science in athletic training degree and the UND Center for Sports
Medicine was founded. The athletic training education program was the
first program in the nation to be placed directly in a school of medicine
and is housed within the Department of Family Medicine, combining
the efforts of the UND Athletic Training program and the UND School of
Medicine and Health Sciences.
UND’s progressive thinking makes the institution a leader in the field
of athletic training. Moreover, the program’s affiliation with the School
of Medicine helps both the athletic training student and the studentathlete.
Completion of the bachelor of science in athletic training
allows the student to sit for the board of certification exam to become
a certified athletic trainer (ATC).
The student-athletes also benefit from having a wealth of competent
individuals getting them back into action.
In order to be accepted into the athletic training program, which
received a seven-year accreditation in 2001 (note: UND will receive
word in August 2008 of re-accreditation) from CAAHEP, a student must
complete 100 hours of observation, fill out a formal application, and
have a minimum GPA of 2.75.
The Division of Sports Medicine also has an outpatient facility, the
UND Center for Sports Medicine, which specializes in rehabilitation of
orthopedic injuries. UND student-athletes, as well as the general public,
utilize this facility to decrease pain, increase strength, and improve
range of motion of injuries. Many of the injuries seen in the Center for
Sports Medicine are significant, such as pre- and post-surgical issues.
The center is staffed by Cathy Ziegler, PT/ATC, and Robin Tracy, PT/
ATC, who have experience with high school, college, and professional
athletes.

Whether it is reading to area school children or lending their time to countless charitable organizations or providing disaster relief, UND’s
student-athletes pride themselves on their community involvement and have long been looked upon as pillars within the UND and Grand Forks
communities. In 2009-10 alone, UND student-athletes logged nearly 7,000 hours of community service.

AThlETIcS DIREcToR
Brian Faison
Brian Faison is his third year as athletics director at the University of
North Dakota. Faison assumed his duties at UND in May of 2008.
Faison’s first year was a busy one, leading Fighting Sioux athletics
through its first year of transition to NCAA Division I status for all
of its sports programs. He secured conference membership for 16
of UND’s 20 sports in the Great West Conference, restructured the
athletics department and enhanced UND’s statewide profile through
community outreach initiatives and an expanded Fighting Sioux
Sports Network.
In Faison’s second year, student-athletes continued their tradition of
academic excellence: four student-athletes were named academic All-
Americans by ESPN the Magazine; two student-athletes received NCAA
postgraduate scholarships; and a school-record 111 student-athletes
received academic all-conference honors.
Alumni and fan support continued to grow: annual giving to the
Fighting Sioux Club set another record; volleyball set a single-season
attendance record; women’s hockey finished seventh in the nation in
average attendance; and men’s hockey finished second in the nation in
average and total attendance.
Competitively, UND teams again enjoyed outstanding seasons:
volleyball, women’s basketball and softball all won Great West
Conference championships; men’s hockey won the Broadmoor Trophy,
the WCHA Final Five championship, and qualified for its eighth straight
NCAA tournament appearance; and football enjoyed its seventh
straight winning season.
Prior to joining UND, Faison served as special assistant to the president
for athletics development (2004-07) and director of athletics (1999-04)
at New Mexico State University. Before that, he served as the director
of development for the National Children’s Cancer Society (1995-1999).
Faison gained experience in Division I administration as the director
of athletics at Indiana State University (1988-1995), assistant athletics
director for development at the University of Louisville (1984-1988)
and assistant athletics director for promotions and fund raising at
Illinois State University (1979-1984). He also had stints as the assistant
manager for athletic public relations at the University of Missouri (1978-
1979) and assistant director for alumni activities at the University of
Missouri (1974-1978).
Faison received his bachelor’s
degree in 1972 from the
University of Missouri and
is also a 1997 graduate of
the National Planned Giving
Institute.
Faison and his wife, Donna,
have three sons: Jonathan,
Matthew and Bradley.

2011 nortH daKota Softball
Sami Strinz
Head Coach
Year: Fourth Season
Hometown: Keizer, Ore.
Alma Mater: Loyola Marymount (2004)
The 2010-11 school year marks Sami Strinz’s fourth as head
softball coach at the University of North Dakota.
Last year, Strinz and the Fighting Sioux captured their first
conference championship in program history going a perfect
3-0 to win the Great West Conference Tournament.
With an extremelly young team led by a few veterans, UND
went 16-35 overall and although competing at the Division
I level for only the second season put up team all-time topfive
offensive numbers in runs scored, hits, home runs, stolen
bases and walks.
In her second season at the helm of the Sioux, Strinz led the
team into a new era in the first of transitioning into Division
I softball with a record of 9-33.
UND faced new travels, new facilities and new opponents as
it took on 20 Division I teams, three NAIA and one Division II.
The Sioux logged 16,556 miles along the way with only five
home games on the schedule.
The season was highlighted by UND’s first-ever Division I
win, a 3-2 home record, a win over the Big Ten Conference’s
Wisconsin, a 25-0 win at home over Minnesota, Crookston,
and a new career home run leader in Nicole
Puerling.
In 2007, Strinz put her immediate stamp
on the Sioux softball program by guiding
the team to the most prolific offensive season
in school history. UND blasted a North
Central Conference-record 67 home runs,
in the process shattering the school record
by an amazing 38 home runs. The Sioux
also set new team standards for batting
average (.301), runs scored (279), hits (410),
runs batted in (255), total bases (687), walks
(160) and slugging percentage (.505), with
numerous individual team records falling
along the way.
Despite a roster of just one senior and two juniors, UND
went 19-34 on the season and pushed higher-seeded opponents
to 10 and seven innings, respectively, in two games
at the NCC tournament.
Under Strinz’s tutelage, junior outfielder Casie Hanson
earned her second straight All-America recognition and was
named Daktronics Division II North Central Region Player of
the Year, a first in program history. Hanson and junior first
baseman Nicole Puerling earned Daktronics All-North Central
Region and All-NCC honors after each clubbed a schoolrecord
13 home runs.
UND also excelled in the classroom, boasting a 3.01 team
grade point average during the spring semester, a teamrecord
five selections to the NCC Commissioner’s Academic
Honor Roll and a pair of Academic All-NCC honorees. Also,
Hanson was named an Academic All-American for the second
straight year.
Strinz was named UND’s 13th head softball coach on July
17, 2007 aftering serving as head coach at Dakota Wesleyan
University in Mitchell, S.D., for the previous two seasons.
After inheriting a program that had averaged five wins
over the previous five seasons, Strinz engineered a twoyear
turnaround that saw the Tigers win a school-record
17 games in 2007 and place seven student-athletes on the
All-Great Plains Athletic Conference (GPAC), including the
school’s first-ever all-conference first team selection. Strinz
also guided Dakota Wesleyan to its first GPAC Tournament

school records for home runs and doubles.
“I’m really excited for the opportunity to lead the Sioux in
transition to Division I,” Strinz said shortly after her hiring at
UND. “This is a very exciting time for UND Athletics and I am
grateful to be a part of it. I’m looking forward to making a
positive impact on the team, university and community.”
Strinz earned her bachelor’s degree in liberal studies with
a minor in sociology from Division I Loyola Marymount in
2004. While at Loyola, Strinz was a four-year letterwinner
and three-year all-conference performer as a pitcher and

player for the Ireland National softball team during the
summer of 2002 while serving in the same capacities for the
U-Best women’s softball team out of Salem, Ore., from 2000
to 2003. Strinz is currently pursuing her master’s degree in
elementary education.

associate Head Coach
Year: Fourth Season
Hometown: Mason City, Iowa
Alma Mater: Northern Iowa (2005)
Randy Ward is in his fourth season on the Fighting Sioux softball staff
and was promoted to associate head coach in Sept., 2008 after serving
as assistant coach in his first season.
Last season, under Ward’s tutelage, Casie Hanson broke the all-time
school record for career home runs with 32. Hanson also broke records
in batting average, runs scored, hits and total bases.
As UND’s hitting coach, Ward helped engineer the most explosive
offensive season in the history of Sioux softball in 2008. UND hit a
school-record .304 as a team, one of seven different team hitting
records established in Ward’s first year. The Sioux also set new team
standards for home runs (67), runs scored (279), hits (410), runs batted
in (255), total bases (687) and walks (160). UND’s 67 home runs
were the most ever hit by a North Central Conference team.
Individually, Hanson hit a school-record .534 to win her second
straight NCC batting title and was one four Sioux in last year’s lineup
to shatter the team record for home runs in a season. Hanson and
junior first baseman Nicole Puerling each slugged a team-leading 13
home runs, breaking the old record by five.
Prior to arriving at UND, Ward spent the 2007 season as an assistant
coach at the University of Northern Iowa, where he worked specifically
with the team’s hitters and outfielders. Ward helped significantly
improve the Panthers’ offensive output in virtually every offensive
category, including the second-most home runs in team history.
Ward was the head softball coach at Nora Springs Rock Falls High
School in Nora Springs, Iowa, where he helped the team to offensive
records in home runs, batting average, runs scored and runs batted
in. Before that, he spent three seasons as an assistant softball coach
at North Iowa Arena Community College.
Ward is a 2005 graduate of Northern Iowa with a bachelor’s degree
in family services. He is currently working toward completion of his
master’s degree in physical education.

26 2011 season outlook
Fighting Sioux
2011 noRtH Dakota softball
The University of North Dakota softball team
will enter the season as the Great West Conference
defending champions as it swept their
way to the title last May in Dallas, Texas, with
a quarterfinals win over top-seeded Utah Valley
followed by semifinal and championship
game wins over South Dakota. UND outscored
its opponents 14-3 in the tournament.
UND would conclude 2010 with a 16-35 record
but with an extremely young team that was
able to peak when games meant the most,
in April and May, with nine of its wins coming
in the second half of the season leading
to its conference title. Its attempt in defending
might follow much of the same path in 2011.
“It is always our goal to get better every single
day,” Strinz said. “We are going to work every
day and continue working every day until we
get to the conference tournament. We are
not going to be satisfied and not going to be
complacent. We are going to try to continue
building and peaking at the right time like we
did last year and a championship is always the
goal.”
Much of last season’s early struggles came in
part due to a team that was finding its way. It
entered its second season of transition to the
Division I level and doing so with a team comprised
mostly of first-year players at the collegiate
level. The eventual conference championship
roster consisted of 13 freshmen out
of 18 players.
“I think it is exciting because our sophomore
class is our biggest class,” Strinz said. “We have
a lot of girls in that class that won the conference
championship and they have a pretty
good concept of what it takes to win. We just
need to be consistent on what it takes to bring
that mentality every single day to practice.”
The Sioux will have to replace two of its offensive
and defensive leaders after the graduation
of center fielder Casie Hanson (St. Peter, Minn.)
and first baseman Kristi Alcorn (Roy, Wash.).
“Both of them are obviously leaving holes for
us offensively and defensively,” Strinz said. “Offensively
we are going to really need three
people to step up to take the place of the two
of them because they had such great numbers
last year, both in power and getting on base.
Casie stole about 28 bases for
us and I don’t know if we are
going to get that this year, but
we are just going to have to use
different tools to try to produce
runs.”
One place the UND did not lose
anybody and was imperative
to its title run was in the circle.
Freshman Emma Gronseth (Forest
Grove, Ore.) and Michelle
Frank (Chaska, Minn.) combined
for 15 of 16 wins in the season
and combined to go 3-0 pitching
all 20 innings at the GWC
Tournament allowing only 13
hits with 13 strikeouts.
“Our pitching is really exciting
because Emma won 10 games
for us last season and that is
great and if she can do that
again this year we are going to
be in the money,” Strinz said.
“Michelle won five games for us
but I wouldn’t be surprised at
all if she doubles that number
this season. In my opinion she
is probably the most improved
player we have from last year.
She worked her tail off all offseason,
played this summer
and has really matured a lot
over this last year.”
Entering the mix will be fresh-
get it done.”
man Caralyn Chewning
(Willamina, Ore.) who in
the preseason has been
highly touted and expected
to immediately
step in and contribute in
all roles for the Sioux.
“When she is not pitching,
Carlyn will contribute
somewhere in the
infield,” Strinz said. “We
have been working her at
third base, second base
and shortstop right now.
She will probably be hitting
in the four-hole for
us so we are expecting
a lot out of her this year
and I think she is ready to
The Sioux don’t expect to go with a rotation
but go with whom they expect to give them
the best chance to win on a game-by-game
basis.
“I expect both Emma and Michelle to do great
Sophomore Emma Gronseth will be a part of a strong returning pitching
staff for the Sioux. She went 2-0 in the Great West Conference Tournament
last season with a 1.15 earned-run average.

Amber Roth will be representing the Sioux as the lone sernior in 2011.
things and then adding to that I see Caralyn
Chewning eating up a lot of innings for us too,”
Strinz said. I have told the girls this that I don’t
think we have a number one pitcher, I think we
have three. That is a first we can say that since
I have been here. I am assuming that innings
pitched will be pretty even by the end of the
season.”
Offensively and defensively, the Sioux are entering
the season still a work in progress but
the coaching staff believes its overall depth
and winning mentality will pay dividends in
the end in its attempts to defend its championship.
“Even with our younger kids we have a lot of
kids coming in this year that are proven winners
at their various high school and travelball
levels,” Strinz said. “Dee Jantzer won an
ASA national championship and that is about
as good as it gets at the amateur level. A lot of
our girls have won state championships while
Michelle Frank won a national championship
this summer, so we have a lot of proven winners
right now. We just need to remember that
and bring that mentality every day.”
Three players returning to the lineup that will
be counted on to contribute on an everyday
basis is sophomores Cami Bennett, Kayelee
Schoeny and Lindy Sippola.
Moving from second base to the outfield to
start the season, Bennett will be opening
games as the leadoff hitter getting things
started offensively coming off a good freshman
season with a .299 batting average, .346
on-base percentage and is the team’s return-
Fighting Sioux
2011 noRtH Dakota softball
ing leader from last season in
hits with 50.
“Cami is our leadoff hitter as of
right now as I think she will continue
to do a good job of getting
on base for us and has done a
nice job of working on all facets
of her slap-hitting game even
adding some power. She will
also be starting the season in
the outfield. I am not convinced
that is where she will stay all
season as it can be said that she
was a big part in us winning the
conference championship last
year with her defensive play at
second base, but she makes our
outfield so much stronger.”
Schoeny is projected to bat second
as the team’s center fielder
and returning leader in batting
average (.307) and stolen bases
(15), while last season’s GWC
Rookie of the Year, Sippola, will
be moving to shortstop and depended
on to anchor the position.
“Lindy has an natural leadership
ability in the infield and does
a really good job,” Strinz said.
“She pretty much knows everybody’s
roles defensively and
it is nice for her teammates to
look to her if they are not sure.
She has worked really hard this
offseason too and is hungry for
another championship.”
Again with a roster comprised of mostly underclassmen
(20 of 24), they will be led by
fifth-year senior and catcher Amber Roth
(Shoreview, Minn.).
“With Amber Roth out right now (due to an
injury) we are going to have Courtney Gonzalez
starting behind the plate until Amber gets
healthy,” Strinz said. “I have been upfront with
all of the girls that it is my philosophy that you
don’t lose a starting position due to injury. But
Courtney Gonzalez will be catching for us right
off the bat and has looked good.”
Sophomore Kayelee Schoeny is coming off a rookie campaign that
saw her second on the team in batting average (.307) and stolen
bases (15).

The Great West Conference is
made up of 10 intercollegiate institutions
that range geographically
from New Jersey to Texas to
California. The 10 member schools
are spread out over seven states
and four time zones, giving each
school added exposure - both in
terms of media and recruiting - in
new destinations.
The conference affiliation also
generates much interest within
Ed Grom
GWC Commissioner
44 Great west conference
the 10 institutions’ substantial
alumni base.
The conference, which began as
a football-only league, took a giant leap in the collegiate athletic
world when the conference expanded to include several additional
sports and several new members.
Joining the league on July 10, 2008 were Houston Baptist University, New Jersey Institute of Technology, University of North Dakota, University
of South Dakota, Texas-Pan American and Utah Valley University. Chicago State accepted the league’s invitation to join in October, 2008. These
seven schools joined football only members Cal Poly, UC Davis and Southern Utah University to make up the 10-member league.
In addition to football, championships conducted during the 2008-09 academic year were men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s
indoor and outdoor track and field, and men’s and women’s golf. Team sports in baseball, basketball, soccer, softball, tennis and volleyball begin
league play in 2009-10.
As the conference began planning for multi-team sport competition in 2009-10, several teams were added in the sports of women’s soccer and
baseball to help provide a more diverse and competitive field. Delaware State, Howard and South Carolina State joined as associate members
in women’s soccer, giving the Great West two, four-team divisions. The associate members, plus NJIT, make up the Eastern Division, while North
Dakota, South Dakota, Houston Baptist and Utah Valley play in the
West. Northern Colorado and New York Institute of Technology joined
as associate members in baseball, giving the Great West eight playing
members. Seattle University was added as an associate member in
cross country and track and field in 2009.
Officially announced Feb. 25, 2004, charter members of the Great West
Football Conference were California Polytechnic State University; University
of California, Davis; North Dakota State University; University
of Northern Colorado; South Dakota State University; and Southern
Utah University. Conference competition began on Sept. 4, 2004 with
UC Davis scoring a 52-0 win over South Dakota State and Northern
Colorado notching a 15-13 win over North Dakota State.
The Great West continues its proud tradition in football and has been
rated as one of the best in Football Championship Subdivision and
ahead of Football Bowl Subdivision leagues such as the Mid-American
Conference and the Sun Belt.
The Great West Conference recognizes student-athletes on both a
weekly and full-season basis. Individual awards include players of
the week; all-conference teams; an academic all-conference team;
and player, newcomer and coach of the year awards. The league also
crowns team champions for both regular season and post-season
competition.
The governance of the Great West Conference remains primarily with
the member institutions. Each member institution is represented
on the President’s Council by its respective CEO. The general operations
and management of the Conference will be conducted by the
directors of athletics and senior woman administrators (Joint Council).
Scheduling of contests, assignment of officials and certain media relations
functions remain with member institutions.
UND president Dr. Robert Kelley (left) and director of athletics Brian Faison announced
UND’s membership into the Great West Conference in July of 2008.

2011 NORTH DAKOTA SOfTbAll
JULY. 9, 2009: FORMER STANDOUT COCHRANE
SELECTED INTO HALL OF FAME – GRAND FORKS,
N.D.—A native of Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, Mikki
Cochrane transferred to UND from Valley City State
University prior to the 1993 season and would go
on to graduate as the program’s career leader in
strikeouts (494) and earned run average (2.20).
Fourteen years after her graduation, Cochrane is
still ranked No. 2 all-time at UND in both categories.
Cochrane became the first two-time All-North
Central Conference selection (1994, 1995) in UND
softball history and graduated with the top three
single-season strikeout totals at UND. Cochrane
struck out a then-school-record 216 hitters as a
senior in 1995, breaking her own record of 177 she
had established the previous season. Also in 1995,
Cochrane set a UND single-season record for ERA
(1.26) that still stands to this day. She led all NCAA
Division II players in strikeouts per game in 1994 and
ranked second in 1995. Cochrane, who also played
for the Canadian National Team, was named to the
Academic All-District second team following her
senior year.

SEASON OPENER – CEDAR FALLS, IOWA. - UND

in her first collegiate start limiting Dayton to five
hits.

FINALE AGAINST HOST UNI – CEDAR FALLS,
IOWA. - The Sioux dropped its opening-day finale

Dome Classic, 13-6. Kristi Alcorn hit the team’s first
home run of the season for an early 1-0 lead, but the
Panthers exploded for 10 runs during the second
and third innings.
“The UNI game was a good battle of adversity for
us,” head coach Sami Strinz said. “We had some
opportunities early in the game to not let the big
inning happen but this was a learning experience
for us. I was really happy with our battle and fight.”
(1-3) FEB. 14, 2010: BATS GO COLD TO CONCLUDE
RAMADA-UNI DOME CLASSIC – CEDAR FALLS,
IOWA – UND dropped a pair of games on the

her first complete-game. She collected six strikeouts
while surrendering only five hits and one walk. Cami
Bennett went 3-for-4 with two runs and one RBI.
“Emma threw a great game for our first shutout of
the year,” Strinz said. “Our hitters did a great job of
making adjustments at the plate and continuing to
apply pressure. It was a great team effort.”

COMBACK WIN OVER SIOUX –CORPUS CHRISTI,

home game.”

and one run scored.

position getting five RBI. I am really proud of our
fight though.”
